Xperia Play gets Rainbow Six exclusive, more games at E3

Sony Ericsson has announced that Rainbow Six: Shadow Vanguard will be launching exclusively on the Xperia Play tomorrow, and that it'll be following up the release by showcasing another 20 games at next week's E3 Expo. Xperia Play owners in Western Europe will be able to download Shadow Vanguard for free, but unfortunately there's no mention of whether this offer will be extended to owners of the Verizon-branded Xperia Play across the pond.

The games to be showcased at Sony Ercisson's E3 booth include Minecraft, Battlefield: Bad Company 2 and Samurai II. Most of these titles are being kept under wraps for the moment, but you can find some slightly bizarre early video footage of Minecraft on the Xperia Play after the jump.
